The Guild Wars 2 Facebook Page announces plans for a four-hour stress test today for Guild Wars 2, though this may not be a smooth experience due to how they are doing this (thanks VG247). Here's word:

We will be conducting a stress test on Thursday, August 2 from 12:00 Noon PACIFIC Time to 4:00 PM PACIFIC Time.

Unlike previous stress tests, we will be actively working on the game during the event, so you might experience connectivity problems or discover features that are not working as designed. Any issues you experience are a result of the rigorous conditions of the stress test, and are in no way representative of the state of the game at launch. By participating in this stress test, you’re helping us make Guild Wars 2 a better game. Thanks for your cooperation—we’ll see you in-game! ~RB2

And you'll never be able to tell them GW2 was no good because it has no subscriber numbers, only total sales, and will have no available concurrency numbers.

So no matter what, GW2 is a revolutionary success! They found the perfect game to shill for!

Reminds me of my friend who rants and raves about how Rift is the best MMO of all time yet all he is ever doing on Steam is playing fucking Sonic the Hedgehog or DOTA2. I guarantee you 90% of the people shilling GW2 won't even be playing a significant number of hours three months out and will have excuses like "Well at least there's no fee I'm paying, I got my money's worth!"

Predictable.

No one's holding a gun to your head forcing you to buy GW2 or comment on GW2 topics. Axis shits on it every single GW2 thread pops up. With vague excuses as to why it's so terrible apparently.

There's a difference between stating an opinion with actual facts to back said opinion up and just trolling for effect.

I've stated plenty of reasons the game is subpar here, more specifically I've sent them to Arenanet and posted feedback.

This is a forum to comment, and judging by your hundreds of comments, many of them filled with you calling people names, being a smartass or otherwise disrespectful, I expect trolls like you to smell his own shit and think it smells wonderful blinded by your own aroma.

Most of your reasons are either vague or flat out bullshit, like you didn't play the game past lvl 3 and don't even know what you're talking about.
